The historic Murchison East Railway Station building burned down on June 4.

There are no plans to rebuild or develop the site of a former Murchison East Railway Station building after fire destroyed it last month.

A blaze started in the unused historic timber building at the station on June 4, causing an estimated $350000 in damage.

The adjoining newer shelter was not damaged in the fire and no V/Line services were disrupted.

Custodial owner of Victoria’s rail land and assets VicTrack said it had no plans to rebuild the 130-year-old station building. Senior communications adviser Nicola Holland said the organisation had worked with the local council to ensure the safety of the site following the fire.

‘‘We have demolished the Murchison East station building and have no plans to rebuild it,’’ she said.

Ms Holland said plans for future use of the site would come under the jurisdiction of rail operator V/Line.

‘‘We intend to include the land in the Regional Infrastructure Lease, which will place it under the management of V/Line,’’ she said.

‘‘The rail operator will decide on any future transport use for the land.’’
